05/Feb/2018Capcom take a second week at No1 thanks to 'Monster Hunter: World'.

EA debut at No2 with 'EA Sports UFC 3' and this is exactly where 'UFC 2' debuted back in week 11, 2016 - held off the top spot by a second week at No1 for Ubisoft's 'Tom Clancy's The Division' (original 'UFC' debuted at No1 back in week 25, 2014 and this franchise has only ever been available for PS4/Xbox One). Outside of the Top 2 it's again the same 3 titles below with Activision Blizzard's 'Call of Duty: WWII' at No3, EA's 'FIFA18' at No4 and Rockstar/Take 2's 'GTA V' at No5. Bandai Namco's 'Dragon Ball Fighterz' drops from a debut at No2 to No6 this week. Square Enix have the only other new entry this week as 'Dissidia Final Fantasy NT' for PS4 debuts at No9 (5,000). This is the 3rd 'Dissidia' title in the series, with both previous iterations arriving on PSP only - 'Dissidia Final Fantasy' debuted at No10 in week 36, 2009 and 'Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy' debuted at No24 back in week 12, 2011.

700k is a solid performance for the Switch. Sure its behind pace with XB1 and PS4 but it was always going to be.

Wii and DS were anomalies in the UK market as that article states, so Nintendo having another console which is doing well is very good for them. Switch is becoming the fastest selling console in a lot of countries, but if it managed that in the UK it would be ridiculous, with how much the Wii and PS4 sold in a short space of time.
